Synchronization Odoo --> Magento #188

Open clxadmin opened 8 years ago

clxadmin commented 8 years ago

Hi I'm using Mage 1.9.2.2 and Odoo 8

I'm confused about the direction of product synchronization -- is it possible to do Odoo ---> Magento product sync? If yes, is this made by data push (export from Odoo to Magento) or is it made by data pull (import in Magento with Extension)?

I installed the Magento Extension from bzr branch lp:magentoerpconnect/magento-module-oerp6.x-stable magento-module -- and can not find any import configuration for Magento side.

thanks for pointing out the correct directions Tom

Hi,

No, it isn't. Synchronization is Magento → Odoo for the products. If you really want to synchronize them from Odoo → Magento, you may want to try this branch https://github.com/OCA/connector-magento/pull/146. But you'll soon realize that Magento has way more data and types of products than Odoo so if you want a complete way to configure the products in Odoo and push them in Magento, you would need to reimplement a lot of Magento's things in Odoo.

Hi Guewen I thank you for your information..thats very kind. Yes I agree with you that Mage has different product types (simple, configurable, virtual, download etc..) and you can not handle all types in a easy way in Odoo. For the most standard B2B - E-Commerce we are using simple products - thats why it would be great to export simple products from Odoo ---> Mage.

I mean the principal of B2B-E-Commerce should be a ERP driven concept -- this is like other ERP --> Shop connectors work like. So I'm kind of suprised why the OCA-Connector does it the opposite way. You can export Simple / Configurable products from Odoo to Mage ...the connector from Webkul (https://store.webkul.com/Magento-OpenERP-Bridge.html) is approoving that.

how ever I will try out this branch #146

I thank you and send best regards Tom

Before Odoo 7.0, products were created on Odoo and pushed to Magento. We had so much issues that we decided to do the reverse from Odoo 7.0, and it worked much more smoothly. Still #146 has exactly the aim to be able to create products on Odoo and push the basic data to Magento.

@clxadmin @guewen FYI the PR #146 has been replaced by #200
